More Bus Ramp Woes

Pretty much exactly the same thing that I recorded here a few days ago happened again today, uncannily in exactly the same place! I was getting off the bus outside Tesco again, and the bus ramp refused to come out. Fortunately it was a different driver, so he let me reverse off the bus with the ramp only half way out rather than making everyone else get off the bus; but even so it is still a clear sign that bus ramps aren’t maintained as well as they might be. I still think mechanical bus ramps are awesome, and far better than manual ones where bus drivers need to get out of their cabs to unfold the ramps to let you on and off the bus; but I must admit there is something to be said for the older, simpler way of doing things. At least I never got stuck on a zarking bus!
